The Committee is also to make recommendations as to the need for rules, if any, that, inter alia, address preservation of documents needed for litigation. In doing so, the Committee will consider all relevant topics relating to discovery and inspection, including, but not limited to (a) the impact of increasing electronic communications and electronically stored information ("ESI"), (b) the length of time litigation takes, (c) costs, (d) the definition of "relevancy", and (e) appropriate use of court resources.

If you have any suggestions for the Committee, please contact Heath Szymczak.
